“CONSIDER…” FEATURES BUILD STUDENTS’ REASONING SKILLS. These creative features, which appear after every case, highlight key fact patterns students need to learn. Often taken from real court cases, the features help students evaluate and analyze the legal and ethical issues just discussed in the chapter, while accompanying Case Problems challenge students to think critically about the court’s decision.

EXCERPTED CASES OFFER THE MOST THOROUGH CASE TREATMENT AVAILABLE. Carefully selected, detailed case excerpts often provide both dissenting and concurring opinions. Each two- to four-page case includes a catchy, one-line synopsis of the legal and ethical issues presented, which helps students recall the case and its primary issues when needed in class and on the job.

CALLOUT STUDY FEATURES BRING LAW, ETHICS, AND BUSINESS TOGETHER. “Business Strategy Tip” margin notes, “Business Strategy” boxes, “From the Manager’s Desk” readings, and online exercises all offer insights into the strategic aspects of the law, and let students apply the legal and ethical principles they’re learning to real-life companies.
